I didn't compare many but here are a few. When I say Japanese original I mean Japanese first release, same mastering as the original in the country where it was recorded. In descending order.A. Miles Davis - Bitches Brew1. Japanese original promo stereo2 -3. Japanese original stereo2 -3. US original 360 sound.US and Japanese sound slightly different, I listen to both.B. Miles Davis - Pangaea1. Japanese original promo2. Japanese originalC. Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame1. Japanese original.2. Canadian original 360 sound. D.Mahavishnu Orchestra - Birds of Fire1. Japanese original promo2. Japanese originalE. Mahavishnu Orchestra - Visions Of The Emerald Beyond1. US original White Label Promo.F. Al Di Meola - Cielo e Terra1. Japanese original promo2. Japanese original

I have or had other pressings of all these albums, they are worse to various degree. Canadian original 360 Sound Bitches Brew also sounds good but I preferred the US and Japanese. Japanese first release of the "Visions..' by Mahavishnu Orchestra is something that I don't like. This is rare in my experience when it comes to records from 70s.

Also,John McLaughlin with Shakti - A Handful of Beauty.1. Japanese original promo2. Japanese original.By far better than anything else I heard, including US WLP.John McLaughlin - Electric Guitarist1. US WLP2. Japanese originalBoth sound good.
